Smashbox Wondervision Cosmic Eye Set Holiday Collection 2013!

Smashbox’s Wondervision Holiday 2013 Collection is inspired by a kaleidoscope of infinite multi-faceted looks. The eyeshadow palettes are in the shape of a hexagon (much like a kaleidoscope) with six colors and the lipglosses have high shine and a prismatic iridescence. I purchased the limited edition Wondervision Eye Set in Cosmic ($32) for the pretty teal and sapphire shades, but there is so much more. I’ll review Cosmic today. I’m kicking myself for not purchasing the lip gloss set too. I may have to remedy that soon

Smashbox Cosmic Eye Set consists of:

6 Eyeshadows in Sandstone, Silver, Luster, Aqua, Smoke, Sapphire

Full Exposure Mascara in Jet Black

Limitless Eye Liner in Onyx

How to Get the Look Cards

Sandstone is matte warm ivory, Silver appears in the pan as a pale taupe but is actually a shimmery oyster, Luster is a matte taupe, Aqua is a shimmery teal, Smoke is a matte dark grey and Sapphire, a deep shimmery navy blue with silver and blue sparkle. All the shadows are very creamy, even the matte shades. All have good pigment and the best thing–NO fallout! One word of caution–I did get some fading after wearing the shadows for only four hours so make sure to use a good eyeshadow primer.

Sadly, I’m not a fan of the Smashbox Full Exposure mascara. It did not add any length or volume and I don’t care for the big and LONG brush. It didn’t flake or smudge but I expect more from a mascara. The Limitless Waterproof Eyeliner in Onyx is very soft and smudges easily for a smoky look.

For this look I used Sandstone on the brow bone, Silver on the lid, Aqua in the crease and Sapphire to line the bottom lashes. I also used Oynx to line upper lashes with Sapphire on top blended a bit.

Bottom Line: the Smashbox Wondervision Eye Set is a great value for 6 eyeshadows, a liner and mascara. The shadows are of exceptional quality; creamy, easy to work with and no fallout! I do wish they lasted a bit longer but I would still recommend these sets. Also available in Sparks (neutral) and Flash (purples).

I have picked this up and put it back more times than I can count! After seeing the eye look you did with this, I want it again!

I love this on you. You shine, twinkle and glow. I looked at this at Ulta but bought the UD Vice 2 palette instead. The mascara isn’t a favorite so that probably swayed me.

I had no idea they had lipgloss sets to go with these!!! I bought the other two eye sets but it looks like I missed the best one. These colors are stunning!!! You look great.
